After teaching my two lessons on phonemic segmentation and observing the two students during whole class instruction I have drawn various conclusions on both the students strengths and weaknesses. Student A excels at being able to tap out sounds within a three sound word, as student B is able to tap out the individual sounds of words with 4-5 sounds in them. These activities however acted as review for the students being as they were exposed to these concepts in kindergarten. During whole class…

Retail SEERS Analysis – Apple A: Raw Material: Glass (Not Sapphire) Corning (Gorilla Glass) – USA Apple has decided against following an industry shift towards sapphire glass. They did this because due to environmental concerns since “Sapphire requires 100 times more energy to produce than glass” (Bajarin 2014).

The Human Resources Director, Mr. Jenkins, briefed the Incident Response Team that the business wants to recollect the possibility to bring up the investigation to law enforcement in the future, so whatever completed…

Often times iconic scenes in a movie will have amazing music, sound effects and vocals to tie the whole scene together, and with all of these, visuals are not really needed, they will only give a crystal clear image of what the director has already portrayed with sound. One example could be the shower scene in Psycho; if you turn off the screen and only listen to the sound; an almost crystal clear visual is made because you can hear what is actually going on. Another perfect example is the…

Engineering Disasters One of the most famous engineers was Thomas Edison who famously stated that “ [he had] not failed, [he had discovered] 10,000 ways that did not work”.

Edison’s approach illustrates the engineer’s ideal process, as he repeatedly tests and perfects the design of the desired result before releasing the result to…

that sum is extremely small. The probability of an athlete even making it to the professional level is slim to none. According to the NCAA there is a 0.03% chance of a high school athlete going to the pros. There is a 1.2% chance of a college athlete going pro (NCAA 1). Around the U.S. over 30 million children compete in youth sports. This shows how unlikely it is to make it into the elite community of professional sports (Weisenberger 1). The probabilities vary between different sports, but…

function and production of the medical industry. Attending college, doing the internships to get clinical hours and often times working 12 hour shifts to bring home salary ranging from $45,630 to $66,220, doesn’t quite seem fitting (“Ferguson’s”). Professional athletes are not required to obtain any particular schooling nor maintain any standard academically. “Unless you’re finding a cure for cancer or creating world peace, I don’t know if anybody deserves to get that much money”, said Drew…
